MacBook Air 13" My Apple charger for MacBook Air gets very hot at the wall outlet; is this dangerous? The overheating charger has been ongoing from the time of purchase in 2014; and, IT IS AN Apple product. At the Genius Bar of Apple store, I was told it was not an issue. Can I believe this?

Macbook Air M1 charger Recently I bought the M1 Macbook Air, from the very beginning the charger is getting unusually hot. Earlier I thought maybe it was always like this, but now I'm seriously concerned of the fact that it gets unbearably too hot. I had a word with the customer support, and suggest me to visit the nearest store which is 200KM from my place, as confirmed BY THEM! That too during the COVID period!! How can they give such insane answers?! This is how APPLE SUPPORT HELPS!! I need my charger be replaced since it's only been two months since the purchase. What am I supposed to do, please help!

My macbook charger and macbook gets hot while charging. When charging (from 15% to 94), and using it at the same time (light web browsing), the charger head, power adapter (brick), and the mac itself get pretty hot(though the fans aren't spinning or anything) specifically the part of the mac where the charger is plugged in, the left and right palm rest, and the underside of the mac. Though the side where the charger is plugged in seems to be the hottest spot. Is this normal? I'm getting pretty worried, but I don't know if I should be.
